Canadian friends:
While climate change impacts are most pressingly felt, this is a very good time to review Canada's commitments to adaptation, & share them widely.
If you read this, you'll see that the priority is reactive & local: informing citizens of risks, building data, shoring up protective infrastructure, conserving carbon sinks. What's *missing*? A top-down commitment to changing energy systems.
It's not enough. Inform your circles & push your MPs for more.
yes, we're fighting the same forces as the US, who have too many of our politicians in their pockets. so local activists are constantly battling real estate, oil, and the effects of MAGA here.
there's a struggle going on right now with premier Ford's plans to build on the green belt, favours to his buddies. it's infuriating.
The green belt *and* the huge surge in lobbies holding sway in urban planning, healthcare, & education, thanks to Ford introducing US-style privatization into what were our inherited gifts of public systems. The absolute *shame* of throwing away what other countries covet.
There is so much we need to do.
And so little economically-stressed Canadians *can* do, while fighting the impact on their home fronts.
Hope you're staying as sane as possible between the rock & the hard place. 🫂
people are getting very angry, since he promised not to do this. i never believed him but many did.
